Read if you are in need of work to be done or looking to do work

Khaled from Awapuni

Palmerston North people 👋

It seems like nearly every second day we are hearing about someone who has been scammed or messed around when they’re just trying to organise simple help. That's why I'm testing an idea for a local odd-jobs platform to help people get small household tasks done without the stress of trying to find someone reliable.

The goal is to build something that feels safe, local, and fair for everyone.
clear job descriptions
transparent pricing/bids
real profiles + ratings
We’ll start small with non-licensed jobs like:
🌿yard tidy-ups
🚮 rubbish removal
🚐 small moving help
🪣cleaning
🏠 minor repairs & maintenance (non-licensed)


The pilot won’t include electrical, gas, or certified plumbing.
With the cost of living right now, if you want to jump onboard as a customer or worker i’ve made an early access waitlist:

Join the early access list here: forms.gle...

I’ve also got a fully anonymous survey up that takes less than two minutes. This will help me tailor the categories, pricing expectations and see what people want most:

Quick survey here: forms.gle...

If you’ve ever struggled to get a small job done because it’s “too small” for tradies, or if you’re someone who wants to earn extra money doing honest work - I’d really love your input.

​​👉You can also book on behalf of a family member who needs a bit of extra help.

Thanks heaps 🙌

Hello Neighbourly Community. Sadly my phone had a moment and uninstallerd the Neighbourly app for me. I have lost all the replies I had for a roofing contractor. I was wondering if anyone knows how to contact Fin from Roof Buddy please or if anyone has any reccomendations for a reliable roofing contractor please. Thankyou.
